On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) criticized the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over a proposed climate rule requiring public companies to report their carbon emissions and argued that we need to “overhaul this agency, abolish it, and replace it with something new, starting from scratch.” And that the agency as we know it “may not be around very much longer if they proceed down this road.”
Lee said, “The SEC’s doing this because the SEC believes that it can get away with this, at least for the time being. They’re trying to help further the accomplishment of a really aggressive, far-left, environmentalist agenda through the ESG movement. Now, look, there are some impediments to the ESG movement that’s been very effective so far at trying to thwart American energy independence, in addition to pursuing a whole bunch of other leftist agendas, separate and apart from those connected to global warming. … What we need to do is overhaul this agency, abolish it, and replace it with something new, starting from scratch. That is what we will do.”
He added, “And so, look, if they proceed down this road, number one, there will be litigation, litigation that I suspect they will lose. Number two, regardless of the outcome of the election — of that litigation, elections that will come in this November will help us ensure that there are lasting consequences to the SEC. The SEC as we now know it may not be around very much longer if they proceed down this road.”
We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
